Key Ingredients
Chicken and/or Beef Bones – Any animal bones will work in this recipe! You can either buy chicken or beef bones from your local grocery store or butcher shop, or use the leftover bones from a roast chicken, short ribs, etc. Whenever I roast a whole chicken, I make sure to save the carcass and all bones. I then store them in my freezer until I’m ready to make this bone broth! Apple Cider Vinegar – A touch of apple cider vinegar will help break down the bones and extract as much collagen and nutrients from them as possible. Though you can definitely make this recipe without vinegar. However, the use of vinegar will likely result in an even more nutritious and beneficial broth.
